Default Showstopper Engine Art Work Installed

Peter did a great great job as worked together on many emails to come up with something and since the Capitals won the cup while we were working on design I decided to get a Caps cup logo in my car since I have been with the organization for over 30 years. Picked up my new car yesterday and this came in the mail today and will get it on this weekend and hope it is easy. Great job to Peter and highly recommend to anyone looking to do.

Updated from other day and got it all installed today. Great work by Peter

Looks great. As a Blackhawks fan, I luv the Stanley Cup logo idea. Funny, because you and I are living parallel lives. Pete is working on my set as well and we both took delivery of our Z06s earlier this week. I received the shipping notice, however I haven't received my components yet.

How difficult was the installation of the Coil Covers? I heard the passenger side can be tricky.

Thanks and I was working with Pete when he was starting my project not knowing if the Caps were to win. Turned out great. Got my car Wednesday and bad weather 2 of the 3 days. It took a little bit of time but not bad but when I first put in I got a very minor little scratch but can’t see once I installed but I stopped and put blue painters tape on the front of all so I would not scratch. To be honest I had a little more of a Challenge on the drivers side fuel rail but not a big deal. Took my time and was easy on it. Good luck with yours and all and all very simple. Tom

Thanks. Congrats again Tom on your new Z06. Like you, I am also keeping my C5 as I don’t think I will ever let it go as I have too much sweat equity into it customizing it over the years.

Next step for my Z06 is a trip to my local body shop for a custom paint stinger hood. Once I get it back, I will have a few weeks in my garage to add the other mods/ components I ordered while the paint cures before installing the Xpel and window tint. I guess it’s good timing since we are in the wet period of our Florida summer.

Nice work. I am a Predators season ticket holder, I was so glad to see Trotzy finally get his.

Those covers are almost as beautiful as the Caps playoff run.

Congrats on both!

Agree with you as will never get rid of my C5 either...Good luck on your mods as I am getting Ceramic and Xpel in 10 days while I am on vacation..wonder what cure time is as mine will be I guess 30 days. Not sure on that. Sounds like we are doing a lot of the same things. Send me pics when you get your car.
